Customer Reviews of Dune Warriors
An excellent B-movie treasure I originally got this movie because I have been a fan of Rick Hill since before his B movie days. And I like David Carradine. So I checked it out. Another Seven Samauri remake, basically. Yeah, their budget was about $4 and there's some pretty scary acting in it, but overall it's actually a lot of fun.
Post-Apocalypse Seven Samurai
David Carradine straps on his "Warrior and Sorceress" robe yet again in this derivative post-apocalyptic action thriller. The plot is the same-old isolated community in the desert seeking rootless warriors to defend them against ruthless bandits who are after their water. The post-apocalyptic culture in this movie is acceptably well done for this genre, and the obligatory scenes in which the warriors de-glamorize themselves around the campfire are handled with the appropriate solemnity. The battle scenes have some thrills to them, but some technical weaknesses and continuity flaws hold it back. The wrap-around box illustration and title grapics are obviously meant to evoke "Dune," the David Lynch movie based on the Frank Herbert novel, but there is no relation at all (though it is a nice box).
The more interesting things this film offers to this genre include a motorcycle joust, a town with a happening nightlife, politics within the beleagured community, Carradine's sword fighting, and a mysterious back story regarding Carradine and the leader of the bad guys.
David Carradine's performance and the other adequacies in the movie keep it from being a total bomb, but folks who are not completists in the genre could probably find better ways to spend their time.
Trivia: the costume and sword David Carradin wears was first seen in "The Warrior and the Sorceress" and later in "Wizards of the Lost Kingdom II."
